Biomimetic deployable structures (2018)
Thesis
Fenci, G. Biomimetic deployable structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

Modern architectural designs aim at creating dynamic and flexible spaces, able to adapt to the ever-changing environment by virtue of temporary and convertible structures. Biomimetics is the applied science that, through the imitation of nature, find... Read More about Biomimetic deployable structures.

Disproportionate collapse analysis of mid-rise cross-laminated timber buildings (2018)
Journal Article
Mpidi Bita, H., Currie, N., & Tannert, T. (2018). Disproportionate collapse analysis of mid-rise cross-laminated timber buildings. Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 14(11), 1547-1560. https://doi.org/10.1080/15732479.2018.1456553

This paper investigates the structural behaviour of a twelve-storey Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) building subjected to sudden removal of internal and external ground floor loadbearing walls, and computes the probability of disproportionate collapse....
